A sequentially numbered label assigned to each item and patron. These usually contain
the library name, bar code and human readable number.

The symbology is the language of the bar code symbol. The most common types used by libraries are Codabar

Check Digit:

A check digit is the last number in the bar code whose value is based mathematically on other
characters included in the bar code and is used to check the accuracy of the read. If you are not sure if you
use a check digit, call WLP's customer service and we will help you.

2up Labels:

2up labels are supplied in pairs with both labels being identical. It may be helpful to think of
2up labels as identical twins. When ordering 2up labels, follow this example: 10,000 labels = 5,000 - 2ups.
This means that 5,000 numbers will be used and two identical labels will be produced per number for a total of
10,000 labels. Pricing is based on the total quantity of labels.

Two Part Double Labels:

A two-part double label is a two label set consisting of a larger top label containing the
library name, bar code and human readable number and a smaller bottom label containing a matching human readable
number only. The label set is considered one unit and priced as such.

Special Layout Two Part Double:

A special layout two-part double label allows the bar code to be present on both parts of the label.
The label set is considered one unit and priced as such.

CPI (Characters Per Inch):

This refers to the density of the bars in the bar code. Library labels are usually
10 CPI with Codabar and 9.4 CPI with Code 39.
